Hi EHKing. I speak spanish. I followed you guys on the HTCmania forum and I saw that one of your friends has a new watch with a new firmware. He tried to readback the rom unsuccessfully. So I was asking to Golem how to readback the rom. I don't have that firmware yet but I would like to see what is new on it.

Thanks!

(Hola EHKing, si hablo espanol los he seguido a ustedes en el foro de HTCmania y he visto que uno de ustedes tiene un nuevo firmware y ha intentado extraerlo pero no ha podido, por eso le he preguntado Golem como hacerlo. Yo no tengo ese firmware aun pero me gustaria probarlo haber que trae de nuevo.

Hello Guys,

I sent in my phone for repair a second time now (had a screen flicker that would not go away no matter what)

I received the phone back, this time wiped completely.

I noticed the OBB folder is missing under Android. Can I just re-create the folder under the Android folder and have the same functionality ? Or does this mean my phone is now lacking some sort of feature it had? (root related)

All help is appreciated!

So long story short I've noticed a lot of weird things on my phone here lately. Please keep in mind I found a hidden launch app on my phone that mimicked my current launcher. I removed this and just took it as my girlfriend wanted to spy on me. I factory reset and went on my way. Well now it's..... Crazy. I know I'm infected with stage fright. I can't root but some apps tell me I'm rooted. I am trying to flash a kernel but I have exhausted myself trying to gain root to do so. So what is going on here? How do I did myself of this? I am linking a bunch of screens I took. Any and all help is appreciated.

I can't post links since I'm under ten posts. I will pm whoever replies with the link to my shared drive folder containing the screens.

Additionally.

I have recently found that when I check busy box and root status through the busy box installer by jrummy it says I am rooted with busy box installed. I have done neither since I have done a system restore on my phone. Super user access is denied and I have only been able to gain root through king root and then it goes away in 5 minutes or so. What's crazy is that it doesn't show the super user icon when it is rooted. The phone is rooted for a second but all apps still say not rooted. I know a stock kernal with a fresh android installation would fix this but I'm making no progress. Please append https:// to the beginning of the link.

My unlocked SPV M3100 has doesn't show caller ID's when people call and text etc. I'm thinking that with over 3,000 contacts, this might be the problem?

I know when I open the contacts app, it does take a while to scroll through, so is this is the likely cause, or is it something more sinister?

I read there was a timeout issue with WM5 and at the moment, the device is pretty much as it was new, apart from an unlocking (I've hard reset recently).

There could be more causes but I thought I'd see if others had similar experiences?

Hello, I had found a S 5 at a McDonald's parking lot(Dead), so I went home and charged it up.

Is there a way to bypass the lockscreen without erasing all data? Or maybe somehow grab the phone number by looking up some unique code?

I can Unlock VIA Google, enter backup password, and use a fingerprint.

P.S. The phone has an alarm that goes off at 6:00AM and not sure if it's rooted.

Thanks,

Is there a way to increase the quality of the contact photos in Android 6? I've noticed when I receive a phone call, through Google Hanouts especially, the photo quality is HORRIBLE! Very, very pixelated.

Are there any tweaks or add-ons to fix this?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
what size photo did you use? if you use a tiny photo, it'll look like that, as it is made larger. use a large photo and it looks decent. the size of the photo is its quality.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrBrady:
The original photo was 2340 × 4160, then the OS cropped it to size when adding it to the contact, so I don't know what size it ended up being. It seems like the majority of the contact photos look this way. It's very rare for one to actually look good.

Maybe the trick is to pre-size them to the right aspect ratio, then select it as a contact photo so no cropping is needed?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
2340x4160 is, or should be, fine. all the contact photos I see on my phone appear fine, but I only added mine(and its fine as well).
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidFire:
If you're rooted and use xposed framework work you can download a module called "Clarity", and that's its main purpose is to increase the quality of contact photos. I use it myself and it works great.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usafle:
Just installed it the other day, from the XDA Thread that the app points too, it shows as development had stopped on it. Plus, from what I could gather, it only "enhanced" the Thumbnail portion of the contact display, not the full screen contact that shows up when someone calls.

Bummer.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] springer.music:
I can't tell how to fix it but I've noticed the following:

1. When someone from my contact list calls my Google Voice number, Hangouts displays a very pixelated contact image. It's like Hangouts took the small/low-res thumbnail from the chat/SMS section and scaled it all the way up instead of using the full res image from Contacts.

2. On the other hand, when I receive a direct Hangouts call or video call, the caller's contact image is perfectly displayed.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrBrady:
Interesting. Sounds like it may be on Google's end.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carltonbp:
Before it was easy. I had one button in the notifications panel and this cycled through 4 options.

On

Silent - totally silent

Vibrate

Priority - people and apps I'd allowed make to noise at certain times whilst everyone else is silent.

Now I have 2 buttons

1. Sound, which cycles though 3 options

on

Silent

Vibrate

But silent tells me when I cycle through the alarms ring even when set to silent. So is it really silent?

2. I have a do not disturb option

I select this and priority only turns on. There seems to be no simple way of changing this to silent.

To go to silent I have to click on the priority notification/sounds and vibrations/total silence/exit.

So I assume that is now completely silent?

But that's now the default and If I want to go to priority only then I need to click on the total silent notification/sounds and vibrations/total silence/exit.

Questions

What am I missing here because this is a mess?????

All I want to do is basically how it was before. Easily switch between, silent, priority and sound is there an easier way?

And which of these two options for silent should I use?

:(

I'm not rooted.

Hi guys!

I have really particular question, which I have not found any answer to. I have my microSD card partitioned and I did backup of the system with CWM, but I have marked sd-ext option too. Now I have few questions:

1) So when I will format my microSD card and don't create new partition, then recover my earlier done backup of my system and sd-ext through CWM , will second partition (ext4) will also be recreated? or I should re-partition my microSD and then recover my sd-ext files through CMW?

2) When re-partition is needed, can I choose create ext2 and recover my sd-ext data which was on ext4? is it possible?

3) When I know that my backed up files on second partition was for example 4GB, and I still had 6GB free space (both give 10GB in total), can I shrink my newly created second partition to 8GB in total, and leaving 4 GB free space instead of 6GB before. Will it affect recovered through CWM files?

4) And lastly I would like to know when I copy microSD files to computer, files are only those from first FAT32 partition? When I wipe my microSD and copy these files back to microSD, I assume all my ext4 (second partition) files are lost? and then, all linked apps through link2sd will be broken (deleted?)? There is only one option to backup them and is it through CWM recovery with "sd-ext" option? or is there anything else?

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] djb77:
Unfortunately I think this will only run on a G900F variant successfully due to the kernel. It woud be a G900F specific kernel, so some other variants might not work at all, and others may find issues. For example, a G900I user may get away with testing it, but features like NFC will not work like what happens with Lollipop firmwares.

I think I'll wait until an official 6.x comes out before I make any ROMs based on it, this is obviously an early beta.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] mikeyaj:
as someone who makes roms is it a good thing to get a beta for testing purpose so you essentially get a head start for when the official version comes out? for tinkering and messing about this so to speak?

You could also try to install systemless root and after booting copy su.img and SuperSU.apk from my zip to /data, so there is /data/su.img and /data/SuperSU.apk
